Stanley Kubrick loosely adapted Stephen King's bestselling novel about a writer who enters a ghostly time warp of delusion and murder. In a signature role, Jack Nicholson stars as Jack Torrance, who comes to the elegant, isolated Overlook Hotel as an off-season caretaker with his wife (Shelley Duvall) and young son (Danny Lloyd). Hoping to complete his unfinished novel, Jack instead descends into madness in this horror classic from 1980. This two-disc Special Edition includes commentary from cinematographer Garrett Brown and Kubrick biographer John Baxter as well as two making-of documentaries (one with commentary from Kubrick's widow) and featurettes on Kubrick and the film's composer, Wendy Carlos.
